Mirissa, a vibrant coastal town on Sri Lanka’s south coast, is world-renowned for whale watching. The best time to experience this is from November to April, when blue whales migrate through Sri Lankan waters. Early in the morning, boats leave from Mirissa Harbour for a 3–5 hour journey into the deep sea. These tours offer the chance to witness majestic blue whales—the largest animals on Earth—along with sperm whales, playful dolphins, and sea turtles in their natural habitat. It’s a breathtaking and educational experience, ideal for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.
